St.Petersburg, FL., May 5, 2008 - Accel Networks, the leading provider of managed fixed wireless broadband services, today announced four new master agent partnerships formed during the first quarter. Accel’s base of agents now includes highly recognized industry leaders including:

1. Telarus, Inc. (Draper, UT)
2. Realcom Solutions (Dallas, TX)
3. Vision Telecom (Providence, RI)
4. Advoda Communications (Denver, CO)

“We are very pleased to have such prominent and well respected master agent like Telarus representing Accel” stated Mark Gianinni, CEO of Accel. “Given their knowledge of the markets and insight into customer demands, their decisions to add Accel’s service to their product portfolios is extremely gratifying to us.”

Accel provides the broadest coverage and the highest data rates of any fixed wireless broadband provider. By taking a unique, multi-carrier approach Accel has the reach and breadth of the four top carriers combined which enables the Company to select the best possible service for every customer specific location. Then Accel optimizes the RF signal utilizing its proprietary antenna which incorporates patented filtering technology resulting in the highest possible fixed wireless data rates. Accel’s propriety monitoring tools enable Accel Networks to continuously monitor RF links ensuring the best possible customer experience. These three proprietary aspects of its PCI compliant service model: pre-qualification analysis, RF optimization and proactive RF link monitoring make Accel peerless in fixed wireless broadband service.

“It’s exciting to build a channel program from the ground up using Telarus agent’s business needs as a guidepost” added Eric Sandoval, VP of Sales and Marketing. “Consequently, we have seen a strong response from the agents.”

“Although we are new to Accel’s channel program, we are excited to be able to offer our agents a fixed wireless 3G broadband solution” commented Adam Edwards, president of Telarus, Inc. “As our agent base continues to grow in number and sophistication, having a product that can reach multi-location retail businesses who do not qualify for wired services – or who can not afford T1 services – is huge. Not only does Accel offer a great product, the channel program is staffed by professionals who we know by experience will do right by the agents.”

Highlights of Accel's fixed wireless service include: simple customer contracts, 3-day provisioning, on-site tech support (if needed), multi-carrier redundancy, availability, and price.

"For commercial broadband users who do not live within a DSL or cable internet footprint, your options are T1 service ($500+), satellite service ($200+ with latency and minimal upload speeds), or wireless 3G ($150 for 1.0M x 512K)" added Lance Akins, VP of Sales for Telarus. "The service also works great as a backup for wire line customers who need the redundancy, making it a very easy add-on for our existing accounts. Kudos to Accel for putting together such a great product!"
